MONTREAL — Mack Darragh broke the national record in the men’s 200-metre butterfly on Monday to conclude the 2017 Canadian swimming championships.

The Oakville, Ont., native clocked one minute 56.87 seconds to eclipse the previous Canadian mark of 1:56.90 set by Toronto’s Zack Chetrat in 2015.

Ottawa’s Montana Champagne was second in 2:00.17 and Connor Wilkins of Oakville third at 2:02.04.

“It feels amazing to get the record,” said Darragh. “Zack is an old teammate of my mine and I’ve been working so long to get that record. It’s a great way to finish the season.”

Yuri Kisil of Calgary took first in the 100 freestyle, Kaelan Freund of Lethbridge, Alta., won the 100 breaststroke and Victoria’s Peter Brothers topped the podium in the 800 freestyle.

Kisil’s 48.56 clocking in the 100 free was ranked the top swim of the meet on the men’s side.

“I’ve been consistently around that time all summer so it was OK,” said Kisil. “This was my last race of the season and I was hoping to go under 48 seconds.”

In women’s competition, the winners were Alexia Zevnik of Pointe-Claire, Que., in the 100 free, Mabel Zavaros of Oakville in the 200 fly, Winnipeg’s Kelsey Wog in the 100 breaststroke and Mackenzie Padington of Victoria in the 1500 freestyle.
